1انٹرنیٹ ایکسپلورر 9 — Better than many expected?
Just a quick post, it seems that Microsoft have finally made a reasonable web browser, or at least the folks at Tom’s Hardware seem to think so. I’m still looking forward to Firefox 4, and hoping Mozilla will deliver a 64bit version as promised, but a bit of competition from the (still) dominant player in the browser market can’t be a bad thing.
1The case for x64 browsers?
I’ve recently been using Firefox 4 64bit prebeta, also known as Minefield. I thought it would be interesting to compare various browsers to see if this supports my feeling that Minefield is the fastest browser I’ve used. The conclusions are quite interesting. I will continue to update this table as new versions are released

0پی ایچ پی / JavaScript to wake a PC remotely
I have an HTPC and a network server on my network. My server is always on, لیکن HTPC sleeps when it is not in use. If I want to schedule recordings remotely I need a way to wake the HTPC. The solution I came up with is to provide a webpage on my server (password protected) that wakes the HTPC and then redirects to the web interface of the remote control app of the HTPC.

0Outlook 2007 generating corruption in some sent e‑mails
I recently encountered a very strange problem in outlook 2007. E‑mails sent to large numbers of recipients (approx 30) were suffering from some corruption where a large part of the header was appearing in the content of the e‑mail. The appeared as a long string of random characters followed by some text (eg “Sosha1_v1;7” and “x‑cr-puzzleid”) that suggested the garbled text was part of the outlook anti-spam “postmark” feature. The e‑mail message appeared as normal below this corrupt text. Another symptom of the problem was e‑mail failing to send properly the first time send/receive was clicked.

0ونڈوز 7 dial-up connection autodial
Over the xmas holidays I was asked to look at a few issues with a family PC. One of the problems was a minor annoyance related to the modem-based DSL internet connection. The dial up box has a tick box which says “connect automatically”. Although this box was ticked, when the PC was restarted when a connection was required the same dialog box would show up, with the option unticked.
